Aomi Minami Port Park, Metropolitan seaside park in Aomi, Kōtō, Tokyo, Japan
Aomi Minami Port Park is a metropolitan pier park in Aomi, Koto Ward, Tokyo, on an L-shaped site in the central part of Tokyo Port's No. 13 reclaimed land. Its landward side is a Japanese garden planted with various trees, while the bay side has an observation plaza, a terrace plaza and a fountain. It adjoins the Aomi Container Terminal to the south and faces Tokyo Bay to the west, with Oi Wharf on the opposite shore.
Aomi Minami Port Park opened in April 1997 on the reclaimed land of Tokyo Port's No. 13 landfill. Its underground car park, used by 8,421 vehicles, was suspended in May 1999. The park now sometimes hosts events such as the Rinkai Art Meeting.
The park brings together Japanese garden design with modern port architecture, showing how Tokyo balances green spaces alongside active shipping operations. People use the pathways to experience this blend of nature and working maritime activity.
The park is a four-minute walk from Telecom Center Station, reachable on foot or by bus from the Telecom Center Station bus stop. The underground car park is closed, so visitors arrive by train or bus. The grounds are divided between a landward Japanese garden and a seaward terrace and fountain plaza.
The park's underground car park opened in April 1997 and was suspended in May 1999 after serving 8,421 vehicles; it remains closed because of usage and maintenance costs. The site is sometimes used as an event space, for example for the Rinkai Art Meeting. The park also appears in episode 7 of the 2004 drama Kamen Rider Blade, in a scene where Shiori Hirose sits on the wharf.
